A wedding wonderland

MANILA, Philippines - Out of all the participant-suppliers exhibiting at a bridal fair, how do you choose the best? A rule of thumb is to go by experience — other people’s experience, that is. Referrals and word-of-mouth will tell you how a company performed during work.

It is quite easy to judge on the basis of first impressions, but a testimonial from a satisfied client holds so much more weight when making the decision: To buy or not to buy, to hire or not to hire.

A testimonial from a satisfied client could convince you to go for Juan Carlo in choosing a caterer, but when that testimonial comes from Sharon Cuneta, you know you’ve made the right choice.

Juan Carlo the Caterer owner engineer Alex del Rosario even quotes in their website what Sharon wrote in one post-event client evaluation/feedback form, “I have come to rely on your catering services, because having you has always been a joy to our family during parties. Many thanks and keep up the good work”

Juan Carlo the Caterer is among more than 300 participants of Wedding Expo Philippines until today at PICC Forum, CCP Complex. Del Rosario will hold a grand food tasting showcase never before organized in a Philippine wedding fair. A feast for the senses will be served by Juan Carlo featuring the company’s trademark dishes.

Another wedding expo participant who makes sure your wedding is chronicled like a celebrity is Nice Print Photography.

Among the photo and video companies in town, Nice Print has received high marks not only from happy couples but the bridal industry, too. The company promises not just nice prints but personalized service. 

Nice Print Photography’s Charisse Tinio takes pride in the hands-on personalized service she offers her clients to answer any of their questions. Whether they are based here or abroad, they are sure to get a quick reply. “I personally answer all the e-mails I get guaranteed within 24 hours, and I get around 200 e-mails a day,” says Tinio. Nice Print Photography has a long list of satisfied clients from here and abroad. Aside from the US, where it has opened an office to address the demand of Filipino and Latino couples there, it has served clients in Canada, Hong Kong, Macau, and Singapore. This May, it will be attending to the needs of its first client in London, a first in Europe for the company.

For the engagement and wedding rings, Goldenhills Jewelry is the run-away choice of celebrities for their wide range of well-crafted and beautifully designed jewelry pieces.

The 16th WEP edition is dubbed Awesome Wedding Wonderland. Like in past events, the expo promises to showcase the widest array of fine wedding ideas in a two-day extravaganza that also includes Floral Fete, KasaLitrato, Wedding Fashion Extravaganza and I Do HMU.
